Dr Sid picks July 27 for white wedding

IN a few weeks’ time, sensational Nigerian singer, Dr Sid, will be bidding bye to bachelorhood, as he is set to walk down the aisle with his long-time fiancé, Simi Osomo, on July 27.

The Surulere crooner, son of the late Nollywood great, Justice Esiri, made this announcement during the week when he posted a picture of him and his fiancé via instagram.

The University of Ibadan Veterinary Medicine graduate wrote on his Instagram page: “ On the 27th July, 2014, I say “I do” to this beautiful woman #LoveMine my #LastBusStop”.

It will be recalled the duo had their wedding introduction in December, 2013. Few months afterwards, precisely last month, Simi Osomo hit Las Vegas with some friends to celebrate her bachelorette party. However, according to reports, a number of her friends were absent at the party on the grounds that there was no provision for accommodation and flight.

Miffed by their action, Simi, in an email, was said to have removed the names of her friends who did not show up for the bachelorette party from attending her wedding through an e-mail. The email reads in part: “Hey, I’m emailing in regards to my bachelorette party in Vegas. I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt that, out of courtesy and regard for me, you would have communicated to me or Titi in advance that you would not be able make the trip.

“I communicated with you on different occasions beforehand and at no point did you tell me you couldn’t make it or at least mention your reasons for not showing up.

Titi spent a lot of time, efforts and money planning the Vegas trip, with a lot on the itinerary already paid for, but you couldn’t be considerate enough to respond to the final email confirming arrival dates and times, saying you couldn’t make it. “After careful thought of your actions towards me, I would like to let you know formally that you are not invited to Sidney and I’s wedding. I would like to share it with the ones who truly care and support me-friends I can count on, who equally hold me in high regard.”
